Jurisdiction of facilities for §311 purposes

42 FERC ¶ 61,397	March 31, 1988	Volkswagen of America. Inc.	• Volkswagen sought a declaratory order that its subsidiary, Westmoreland Pipeline, qualified as an intrastate pipeline under NGPA section 2(16). This pipeline was built to serve the VW plant from an interconnection with TETCO, both in PA. The pipeline would perform no other services. The Commission found that Westmoreland does not qualify as an intrastate pipeline as it would be transporting gas as the last link in a stream of interstate commerce originating in Louisiana and Texas and would actually be engaged in transportation subject to the Natural Gas Act.
11 FERC ¶ 61,267	June 4, 1980	Seagull Pipeline Corporation	• Seagull sought a declaratory order finding that a new facility constructed by Seagull for the purpose of providing Section 311 (a)(2) transportation and separate from its existing intrastate facilities would qualify as an "intrastate pipeline" within the meaning of Section 2(16) of the NGPA. The Commission found that this new facility does not change the intrastate status of the existing facility and it also qualifies as an intrastate facility. The definition in Section 2(16) does not apply to discreet facilities, but rather attaches itself to the corporate entity.
8 FERC ¶ 61,241	August 31, 1979	Black Warrior Pipeline. Inc.	• The Commission held that an intrastate pipeline could extend its existing facilities solely to transport gas for an interstate pipeline under Section 311 without rendering the facilities jurisdictional.
6 FERC ¶ 61,151	February 16, 1979	Texas Sea Rim Pipeline Inc.	• Texas Sea Rim sought a declaratory order stating that it was an intrastate pipeline within the meaning of NGPA section 2(16) so that it could transport gas pursuant to Section 311 (a) (2) on behalf of NGPL. Texas Sea Rim was a new pipeline and had not yet commenced intrastate transportation. The Commission found that it qualified as an intrastate pipeline because of: (1) the existence of a contract between an intrastate seller and an intrastate purchaser; (2) the intention of transportation of the intrastate sales volumes through the existing facilities; and (3) the pending application to construct a separate interstate line for transportation of NGPL's gas.
